É isto que o povo quer

Sertanejo raiz (also called música caipira) is the traditional, rural form of Brazilian country music that crystallized in the countryside of São Paulo, Minas Gerais, Goiás, and neighboring states. It is typically performed by vocal duos singing in parallel thirds (as chamadas "terças caipiras") accompanied by viola caipira (a 10‑string, 5‑course guitar) and violão (6‑string acoustic guitar), with occasional accordion and handclaps. Its core song types include moda de viola (narrative ballads), toada, cururu, cateretê/catira (with foot‑stomping and clapping), and xote/schottische, reflecting Iberian and European dance roots blended with Brazilian rural poetics. Harmonies are simple (mostly I–IV–V with few extensions), melodies are singable and diatonic, and the lyrics dwell on nature, faith, love, friendship, roads and cattle‑drives, and especially saudade (nostalgic longing) for the countryside.
